Peter,
I've always envisioned exactly the same in passenger equipment. Do
you think PC would still be painting motive power black? If you own a
copy of "PC Power" by Bob Yanosey, there is a color photo on pg. 136 of a
switcher painted by Despatch shops. It is black with a green band centered
horizontally, bordered by white stripes, and the PC logo/lettering in the
green. Looks real sharp!! I think all would be forgiven by railfans in
general had PC chosen this scheme.
